How to Respond to the Salam of a Person Praying During the Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We return to our callers. Brother Muhammad from Dammam, please go ahead. Hello, yes. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace, O Muhammad. I have a question, please. If I am, for example, praying and someone returns the salam, how do I respond to him? And you are praying? Yes, okay. Is there another question? No, thank you, O Muhammad. Please, Shaykh.

Answer:
Yes, he responds to him with a gesture. If someone greets him while he is praying, he responds to him with a gesture of his hand, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do.
